In Re: Standard Jury Instructions in Civil Cases – Report No. 13-01 (Products Liability)

Summary

The Supreme Court of Florida authorized amended products-liability standard jury instructions, a model instruction, and a special verdict form for publication and use. The Court concluded that the Committee had addressed the Court’s prior directives and that the revised package was ready for authorization, while expressly declining to decide the instructions’ legal correctness. The authorization becomes effective when the opinion becomes final.
